They did that?

No, it was at the end of the game...not "just after" the incident. A good 45 minutes between the two.

You're right but it's still in poor taste, IMO. I think even Lebron noticed that, as they showed him over by the bench during a timeout and when the song came on, he seemed to look over to a teammate and motion his hand up, as if to say "you hear that?"

They have all those things queued up before the game(for the stuff they play after the game).

They probably just didn't realize it/forgot about it. I'd bet that nobody explicitly picked that song after the incident and played it, and if they did I'm sure they'll be fired. But like I said, they have those things queued up and planned for before the game, they don't just play things on a whim like that(well, in the middle of the game they do but not at the end)

I just have to wonder what the last decade was to see a line-up as short as the one on the floor for the Mavs a little bit ago haha

2 guys listed at 6' but that are probably less, a guy around 6'5". and 2 guys around 6'7" in Najera and Marion

Wonderful to see your hating leads you to be cynical of goodwill...that's healthy.

Haywood got hurt tonight. The Mavs only big man besides Dirk is now Eduardo Najera. Sigh.

I think he made a good point. If the Cavs had lost, would there still be that nice little circle of prayer? Lebron tends not to stick around when his team loses.

Some of you guys are just pathetic.

Guy just had a scary seizure. Anything could've happen. So many athletes died during the games lately and understandably the players were worried. It's not about basketball, it's not about winning, losing or your pathetic hate.

Goddamnit how disgusting human beings you're.

DURANT! that was a crazy looking buzzer beater

WTF happened to Ben Gordon this year? I know he was hurt some. But why is he looking so awful?

I was wondering the same thing. Gordon has shot over 40 percent from 3 every year but has dropped to 30%. I know he''s hasn't been playing at 100% this year but his drop off in shooting still seems a little strange.

Meanwhile on ESPN we are treated to the delightful showdown of the ever growing bald spots

They're probably still going to schedule several Spurs games for ESPN/TNT next season, because they'll acquire like Michael Redd and be considered a "threat" for the title, meanwhile nobody will have seen Durant play a game still, excluding youtubes

Somebody isn't keeping up with current events. Redd is done.

Its a dig at a guy doing something respectful...not a point...an insult.

He retired? I thought he'd be back next season. Either way, the Spurs are destined for several nationally broadcasted games next season and none of us will have any idea why
